Review of new experimental upper limits on forbidden decay modes of the tau lepton

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6790246
This paper presents a review of experimental upper limits on the branching fractions for various forbidden decay modes of the tau lepton. These are modes which cannot occur in the conventional model in which the tau and its associated neutrino have a unique, conserved lepton number. The limits are based on data acquired by the Mark II Detector Collaboration at SPEAR.
